# It's a depressing election
when a bunch of pussy back-stabbing cunts without a coherent policy that I've been able to discern (although I am, to be fair, an idiot) are still far and away the best choice.

# na theres basically no difference between labours policies and the tories
they're both just rhetoric and words, rarely do things in this country

# i meant
that i've never really seen a consistent policy line coming out of the lib dems since kennedy went, they've just seemed to go kind of anonymous -- or that's how it looks from the outside, anyway, maybe it's different when you're still surrounded by british media

tories and labour i agree totally, there's precious little difference between them

# I used to like the lib dems when they were going to abolish tuition fees, but then I entered my final year of university so fuck it.
Make the next lot pay double.

# Damn straight
I used to like the lib dems but then they got rid of the whiskey man and replaced him with the old chap who I'd felt honour-bound to vote for when I lived in his constituency, chiefly because a vote for anyone but old Ming was throwing your vote away -- a nice piece of work if you can arrange it.

# They probably should have made Vince Cable the leader.
He seems to have the highest profile.

Him or Lembit.

Fuck Lembit though.

# I wouldn't want him as Prime Minister
as I don't think he would be as useful there as he would as Chancellor.

# Isn't Vince Cable Dracula?
That would be brilliant.

# Err...
we should dig up all the dead politicians and take them with us to the public gallery and use them as ventriloquist's dummies? "Winston Churchill disagrees!" we could have old Winnie saying. "Winston Churchill wants fags and booze and Cameron's bum on a platter!"

# Unfortunately,
since Paddy Pantsdown left the Lib Dem leadership, they haven't really got any coverage at all. The media still treat this country as a 2 party system, which it is in all but name to be fair. But you have to question the coverage of media for forcing that....

# They got a fair bit under Kennedy
I liked him. Yeah, he liked a tipple, but who the hell wouldn't if you were lumbered with leading the most anonymous bunch in parliament? I thought he was a decent leader for them, he seemed like progress after Paddy, and left them in a better state. Now to me it seems they've gone massive steps back to bland oblivion. Pity.

# Well that's the thing though.
Relatively speaking, he got fuck all coverage until the boozing accusations arose.

You can't get more badass than that. More trained killers should go into politics.

VAMPIRES

# I like werewolves better.
They give me the impression that they would get on with things and get things done. I imagine vampires would spend a lot of time poncing about and talking about what needs to be done, but doing very little. Because when you're immortal, you've got very little motivation to actually get anything done.

A vote for werewolves is a vote for change - every month without fail.

# that's the thing though
a vote for vampires is a vote for consistency in these turbulent times. consistency, eastern accents, and natty suits.
